I did ride in then down to 79th and back up to my friend's house on oakdale. It was a total of about 44 miles. If I'd ridden back home it would have been about 60. Considering I'm doing a 200k brevet in a week, I need to ride further. I had a stop in between where we went to lunch. Then rewarded myself with crab legs at Half Shell. Have you been? If not, total hole in the wall with great (and relatively cheap) king crab legs. AND they serve Fat Tire beer
